Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes comfortable for dancing?

The platform base and block heel provide significantly more stability than traditional stilettos, making them a popular choice for dancing, provided you are comfortable with the height.

What is the exact heel height?

These shoes feature a high block heel measuring over 9.5cm.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Faux suede can be damaged or permanently stained by water. We suggest wearing them only in dry weather conditions.

How do I clean the faux suede?

Use a soft brush to remove dust. For light stains, a dry, clean rubber suede eraser is the safest option.

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they follow standard UK sizing for adult footwear. If you are between sizes, consider your usual preference for heels.

Troubleshooting

Ankle strap feels loose during wear

Adjust the buckle to a tighter hole setting. If further adjustment is needed, a cobbler can add an extra hole to the strap.

Suede finish looks dull or dusty

Gently use a soft-bristled brush in a singular direction to realign the synthetic fibers and remove surface dust.

Heel feels unstable on slippery floors

Ensure the heel tips are clean. If the tips have worn down, take the pair to a shoe repair shop to have the heel taps replaced.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stable block heel design facilitates a more confident stride compared to stilettos
  • Versatile aesthetic suitable for both casual evening drinks and formal nights out
  • Secure buckle fastening prevents slipping while walking or dancing
  • High-quality faux suede material offers a luxurious look at an accessible tier

Cons

  • Not suitable for individuals who struggle with high heels over 9cm
  • Requires careful cleaning due to the suede-like material
  • Limited to evening or social settings rather than professional or daytime wear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these shoes feature a faux suede finish, proper care is essential to maintain their texture. Avoid exposing them to heavy rain or mud, as suede-style fabrics are prone to water marking. To keep them looking fresh, use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently lift dust and restore the nap after each wear. For minor scuffs, a specialized suede eraser is recommended. Always ensure the buckle is securely fastened before heading out, and periodically check the integrity of the heel tip to ensure the grip remains intact on slick surfaces.
